Man.. you are truly obsessed with your theories of housing BUBBLES!
Why is it so important to you to see people lose the equity in their homes?
What business are you in?
Are you going to profit from the LOSS of others?
You seem to be wringing your hands and jumping up and down, just waiting for the misery of others!
You really need to get out and gain a new perspective of what is important in life.

I fully intend to scoop up some real estate when over-leveraged people have to sell low. The whole "buy low, sell high" thing really does work. Nobody is forcing people into interest only, ARM's, or reverse mortgages. Just like nobody forces people to purchase stocks or bonds. People get to do the research, or pay somebody to do the research. Just like the speculators on oil are going to get burned, some people get burned from being greedy or stupid. If that brings misery to people, who made their own decisions without a gun to their head, it is really too bad. Do not misunderstand this for condoning illicit behavior or scams. But I do not see how real estate lending is a scam. I have closed two deals this year, and there are dozens of pages of "truth in lending". Anyone that does not use a reputable agent and title company is setting themselves up. IMHO.

Blogpimping itself can be profitable.

I don't want to see people lose money but at the same time I think in many areas of the country real estate growth has far outgrown pay raises. Average house price last year went about 13% I believe, cost of living went up almost close to 5%, raises were about 2-3%.

Some has got to give.
